  • Graeme heads to Weymouth to learn about the giant squid fishing from the pier. In this video you get great fishing tips on the best jigs for catching squid, and the setup you need to catch your first squid from the shore! "It's life Jim ,but not as we know it "...A famous quote from Star Trek days, but Graeme went to Weymouth pier for some shore fishing with a difference, that definitely left him starry eyed...Night fishing with a spinning rod for Giant Squid . Lots of them. He fishes with around 50 other pier anglers in true "Combat fishing style" as they try to target these huge Cephalopods...And they end up in the frying pan as well....No, not the anglers !...The Squid !!

    You have the best fishing channel in my opinion. No commercials and 100k+ gear, just everything down to earth that a man of any working class could do and enjoy regardless of a budget. Greetings from Croatia/Sweden. Hope you get many more healthy years and provide a lot more improvised and normal fishing videos. Thank you.

    Steve seems like a real decent guy, and obviously incredibly knowledgeable as well. I don't have much knowledge of sea fishing but watching these vids and especially the ones Steve's been in I think I have learnt a few things, I might not have the tackle but I can rig up something similar from my coarse gear when on holidays thanks to you guys!

    @greatwhitesfishingadventur2273 6 років тому +1

    Graeme, as a rule of thumb, I always cut off the bottom 1 - 2 cms, to take out the hard piece at the bottom, it is tough .... no need to spoil the rest of a great meal !!!
    Well done ... those squid that you caught are belonging to the "Arrow" Family, as here in Sth Australia, we catch "Southern Calamari" ...
    The difference being, is the wings go all the way down the sides of the squid .... as opposed to only 1/2 way down like yours
    Bon Aperitif'

    When I lived in Key West Florida, squid were a nuisance.
    They would swarm anything in the water, either bait or caught fish.
    You could catch them, but after 2 or 3, the shoal would wise up and stand off.
    They might rush in and look at a bait, feeling it with their tentacles - but they would not take it. Only after a rest would they come back in to the hook.
    A couple more caught, and they went aloof again.
    They were quite fascinating, intelligent creatures and I came to think of them as pesky little puppies.
    To this day, I can’t see people taking squid and not feel a pang of regret for them.

    Great video, very big squid. Had now idea you get them in England from the shore! Personally I think the tastiest way to prepare them is bbc the whole mantle and the head very quickly on a very hot grill, just marinate them with olive oil and oregano, salt only when done. Also it's worth cleaning them with seawater only, no freshwater - even more important if you keep them for bait!

    Reminds me of the squid I caught off Newhaven Breakwater in 1969. It caused quite a stir as nobody had seen a squid on rod & line before. I was fishing with an ordinary hook & bait and it got away, but was something different. This vid came as a real surprise to me.

    I think the braid is more important for allowing your jig to fall very freely and naturally whereas mono that is on the thicker side for the circumstances will hinder the jigs performance. Great video, we use those Razorbacks in Australia all the time they are killer.

    @EezeeListen 5 років тому +3

    Very interesting and informative. Regarding cooking, there are many ways of course. In your method I would have flash fried the squid and then added soy and sweet chilli for the last few seconds. By adding those ing's with the oil before adding the squid you are basically adding liquid, thus reducing the frying method and also (although not drastically) reducing the heat of the oil. Cook the food and then add soy etc. Not telling you I am right or anything like that, this is just the way I cook (Indian chef).

    To avoid the ink problem, after you cut the head and tentacles off put the hood containing the organs into the freezer for half an hour, when you pull the innards out the ink sac is semi solid. You can then keep it frozen and use it to make pasta negra with or even write using it.
